Michelle Obama whines over violent illegal-migrant – Latest News
Diary of disturbing disinformation and harmful delusions
This lament:
“What’s happening to immigrants . . . keeps me up at night.”
— Michelle Obama, Monday
We say: Team Trump is primarily deporting violent unlawful immigrants.
Is the former first girl upset with that? Is she ignorant about it? Our guess: It’s all a large show.

After all, if Trump’s 140,000 deportations this 12 months keep her up at evening, how a lot sleep did she lose when her husband Barack kicked out 5.3 million unlawful immigrants on his watch?
Spot the distinction:
“Trump has the lowest 100-day approval rating since they started polling.”
— Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, Tuesday
vs.
“Polls come and go.”
— Schumer, a minute later, when requested about his own approval score of 17%
We say: Oops. Looks just like the kettle simply realized a lesson about slamming the pot.
Yes, President Trump’s rankings have slipped considerably in some polls. Yet even the worst of them are at the least twice pretty much as good as Schumer’s.
This logic:
“If the government . . . could use the threat of withholding money [from Harvard] . . . then it could threaten you to raise your income taxes unless you toe the line.”

Meanwhile, the place had been Harvard’s defenders when the Obama and Biden people threatened to withhold funds from colleges that rejected their agendas?
Or when Team Obama’s IRS really did goal the taxes of people who refused to “toe the line” — i.e., conservative teams?
This declare:
“We’re in the middle of an attempted authoritarian overthrow of American democracy.”
— Rachel Maddow, Saturday
We say: How long will the left proceed with this idiocy? Their “threat-to-democracy” fearmongering didn’t work for Joe Biden, and it failed spectacularly for Kamala Harris in November.
Oh, and if anybody has ignored the desire of the people (who elected Trump), it’s been the left.
